Jeramie Callaway, Nephi City Council member, is over parades and celebrations as part of his assignment with the council and, as such, has been working with a committee and the county on plans for Christmas in Nephi.

“The city and county will have the opening event on November 29 at 6:30 p.m.,” said Callaway. “We will share the night with the county.”

He said that the county wanted to bring back the light parade that was set to begin at 7 p.m and will go from 200 South to the city park.

They will also handle the UDOT (Utah Department of Transportation) permitting for use of Main Street which is also a state highway.

“The county is still planning on the Tree Fest and that will be in the county building main hallway unless they need more room and they can spill over into our building,” he said.

The Tree Fest will run from November 17 until December 1.

“We will mesh our celebrations,” said Callaway. “But the city will be mostly at the park.”

At the park, there will be the little houses that will be a Christmas attraction, there will also be a movie, hot chocolate and donuts at the park, he said.

“The Clark and Jesse Cottage is coming along,” said Callaway. “It is going to be great.”

He wondered if the city wanted to decorate a tree for the festival of trees.

The county is advertising the celebration of the season with tree lighting, ornament hanging, and a festive parade full of small-town charm at the Juab County Christmas in the Country event.

“Santa will be in the parade and will end up at the park,” said Callaway.
